Apple II Disk Image: Phantom Access (143k)
Phantom Access Program, utilities, and menus. Contains welcome screen and
program (including Pink Floyd quote), as well as editor for creating
modules (configuration files) for program hacker. The program implies
it has been worked on from 1982-1985.

Contributed from Michael Kubecka, these are two Apple II Disk images
and collected messages regarding Phantom Access, a hacking and phreaking
program ostensibly created by Lord Digital in the late 1980's.

Michael warns me both that there is no guarantee that this is the "real"
Phantom Access program, and that in an interview he read, Lord Digital
mentioned this program would delete itself after a number of reboots.
Although this is currently a disk image, it is still possible for an
emulator to write over itself, and the image could be lost.

From the documentation for Phantom Access:

"The eventual goal of Phantom Access was to realize a fully automated
system for the Apple-Cat modem. The sound sampling and evaluation system has
been almost unchanged from revision 4.0 to 5.7 of the series, everything else
has been rewritten several times. The final 6.6 revision is a full
implementation of the original design (read: it has very little in common with
anything in the 5.7 series) with a final processor that is capable of
passing data through the Apple-Cat's serial port to an external machine, thus
allowing use of the entire Apple computer system as nothing more than a very
sophisticated auxiliary modem."
